The Critical Messaging Association-Europe has grown from strength to strength over the past two decades and now has 18 corporate members across 10 countries, including the USA and Australia, as well as many European Countries.

Critical Messaging Association-Europe's chief goal is to "create a forum for enterprises engaged in the paging business, anywhere in the world, to discuss with their peers the issues that affect them" and in this regard Critical Messaging Association-Europe continuously strives to bring together the major players in the world of paging.

In 2005, at a bi-annual convention in Helsinki, Critical Messaging Association-Europe combined with the UK's Wireless Messaging Association (WMA) to form a dynamic and international association. Critical Messaging Association-Europe and the American Association of Paging Carriers (AAPC) have now forged strong links and work together to create a global environment in which the members of both associations will find it easier to operate and innovate.
